Add another to the list…
..of injuries sustained since working on major house renovation:
- Slam elbow full force into floor joist when starting concrete cutter.
- Fall off ladder while hanging paneling, getting hematoma on shin.
- Countless scrapes and cuts.
- Blog Blob of concrete from concrete pumper truck hose 30 feet up, in face.
And now, ladies and gents…
the nail through the foot. Mmmm. I’m just not made to do certain things, I guess.

Alcohol, ladders, and power tools don’t mix.

What the hell is a blog of concrete? I mean, you have a solid blog, but I didn’t know how solid.

UY & Paul G both hit the nail on the, er… head. Or is that foot? Either way, you should switch to one of those watery, working guy beers for you projects. Save the Rock Art’s for when you’re just relaxing.

PS REALLY sorry about the nail thru the foot. I hope you’re feeling better…

Sigh…. see that’s why I do self-deprecating blog posts such as this from time to time. Keeps me humble. And for the record, only one of those incidents were related to the oft-quoted Rock Art hi-alcohol beer. The rest were just sheer stupidity.

Listen, if you really want to avoid the wedding, you’re going to have to do a damn sight better than a mere nail through the foot. But hey, ya got just over a month to get it right. [;-)]
Seriously, sorry to hear about all the self-injury. Here’s hoping the rest of the work goes scrape-free.

Hey, Nato might be on to something, I never considered that angle (and me, the former psychology major- no wonder I never graduated). Jenny doesn’t read this site, does she? You could be in big trouble….
